Vandals have damaged the Necrology Wall in Glasnevin.  This is the second time that the memorial has been vandalised in recent years.

It’s a wall used to commemorate those who died in the 1916 Easter Rising.

Eunan O’Halpin is Bank of Ireland Professor of Contemporary Irish History, and told Ivan why he finds the vandalising of the wall a 'disgrace'.
